WiX Online Meeting 284 Highlights
Tuesday, June 18, 2024
The WiX Toolset discussions area on GitHub recovered from its spammer onslaught so we brought it back online shortly after our last meeting.

Our next meeting is scheduled for 16-July.

WiX v5.0.0 has been released
Friday, April 5, 2024
As anybody following this blog knows, today, 5-April-2024, is an exciting day! Obviously, it's the -39th anniversary of Star Trek First Contact Day, when humans and Vulcans first meet. I'm not saying I dressed up, but...oh, right, it's also the +20th anniversary of the first open-source release of the WiX Toolset and, not coincidentally, the release date of the sparklingly-new WiX v5.
